Becoming an entrepreneur in your company
In many cases, departments are also cost or profit centers, responsible for whole product/market segments or, operating as internal service providers, they have to match the price of their competitors on the open market. They have the status of being "companies within a company" (CWCs). The whole system is comparable to a flock of birds.

- Steering and control, with the seven managerial responsibilities
- Recognizing and utilizing your own scope of action as a manager
